Hasaacas Ladies spanked ASFAR from Morocco in the first semifinal game of the CAF Women’s Champions League at the El Salaam Stadium on Monday afternoon.
The reigning Ghana Women’s Premier League champions defeated ASFAR 2:1 to become the first club to reach the finals of the maiden edition of the competition.[ads2]
Goals from Doris Boaduwaa and Evelyn Badu were enough for Hasaacas Ladies to secure the all-important win at the expense of Moroccan champions ASFAR.
It was Doris Boaduwaa who opened the scoreline for Hasaacas in the early minutes of the game but Najat Badri snatched the parity for ASFAR with just a minute to the end of the first half.[ads3]
Hasaacas Ladies returned from the break to dominate the game, made incursions of a second goal until ASFAR goalkeeper fouled Evelyn Badu in the penalty box.
Dead-ball specialist Perpetual Agyekum failed to restore Hasaacas Ladies to the lead as her penalty hit the post.
In the 76th minute, in-form Evelyn Badu made it 2:0 for Hasaacas Ladies with a powerful header from Doris Boaduwaa’s cross.[ads4]
Striker Veronica Appiah nearly made it 3:1 for Hasaacas Ladies in the 81st minute but his strike was beautifully saved by the ASFAR goalkeeper.
The victory means Hasaacas Ladies have reached the finals of the competition and will face the winner of Mamelodi Sundowns and Malabo Kings tie later tonight.[ads5]
